Just got back :-) well video was wank got lots of the floor... First speed bump and facing the deck... Shit... Other than that, possible driveshaft noise and horrendous tappits!!! All seems to be good... Well and the release bearing to be fair that wines... And the clutch is possibly abit fucked... But easily fixable stuff :-) seat is sooo comfy!! Wheels in a good position not struggling with no power steering or anything :-) there maybe a few more repairs todo before t-day (test day) just so itll last the time im out there :-)
More soon

Video up, i pull the clutch arm away and the release bearing noise disapears... The motors cold hence the run on but its quiet agen now, and for a totally standard engine its got a bark ;-) i got a feeling about this engine ;-) (i know i cant use that head). Compression tested it and there all exactly 196-197 its difficult to read on my gauge but there all exactly the same! :-). So rings are good as well as pistons :-)
T-day here i come!!

It looks fairly new mate, tbh i havent even checked the tension on it, it could very well be dirty and on the looser side... Ill have a look when next under the bonnet :-)
